今日のY新聞の編集手帳には思わず大笑い^^
お国のお人柄を見事にピッタリと言い当てている^^

Blue Giraffe (joke)


A millionaire once said, 
"If you show me a blue giraffe, I will give you a huge prize."
Hearing this, people from different countries took the following actions.
The argumentative British thoroughly debated whether such a creature really existed.
The Germans who love learning went to the library and looked up literature to see if such a creature really existed.
The Americans dispatched their armies to search all over the world.
The Japanese spent day and night researching breeding techniques to create a blue giraffe.
The Chinese went to buy blue paint.^^
